Jeter's Next Big Swing

"I don't miss playings," says the retired Yankee, as the press-shy captain leads website The Players' Tribune, where DeAndre Jordan and Tiger Woods break news (sorry, ESPN) and backers are betting on a media home run

The cop drama's Tony Leung Ka-fai and Miriam Yeung were named best actor and best actress.

The Edko Films cop drama, which the screenwriting-directing team of Longman Leung and Sunny Luk took five years to develop, won best film, best director, best screenplay and best actor. Cold War was the highest grossing local production in Hong Kong in 2012, taking in $5.4 million at the Hong Kong box office.

Best actor went to Tony Leung Ka-fai for his role as a deputy police commissioner in Cold War, marking the fourth time The Lover star took home the award after his previous wins for Reign Behind the Curtain (1983), 92 Legendary La Rose Noire (1992) and Election (2005).

Singer-turned-actress Miriam Yeung was named best actress for the first time for her performance in the romantic comedy sequel Love in a Buff. The role was a reprisal of her turn as a smoker and beauty consultant in director Pang Ho-cheung’s 2010 original Love in a Puff.

Although Pang Ho-cheung lost to the Cold War screenwriting-directing team in the best director and best screenplay categories, he proved an actor’s director. Apart from best actress winner Yeung in his Love in the Buff, two actors from his other 2012 hit, Vulgaria, also took home acting awards: RonaldCheng and Dada Chan won the best supporting actor and actress, respectively, for Vulgaria.
